This Is the inoro members than the 1
republicans bad In the Ff I Igktk congmaa four yatra ago. The majority muy be reduced to 42, since one district in Ohio Ik reported as in doubt and probably democratic. The democrat! Htill have hopes of get ting the Twenty fourth Illinois, where Hob" Williams is the democratic candidate. If Williams should be elected, the figure would bo brought down to 40.
The lemocrats lose two scats in the
senate thos' In Montana and Colorado, now held by William A. Clark and Thomas M. Patterson. respectiely. The most remarkable senate light was that won In Idaho b Senator Fred Dubois (dem.), who will be the only democratic senator from a state ntlrely north of the Mason and Dixon line. The ettnttgl will l. av.- the democrat! 11 member! in the senate, while the republicans will have 09, one short of a two thirds majority. The democratic gain in the house Is distributed through the country. Illinois contributes 5 more ib-mocratsto the Sixtieth than to the Fifty ninth congress, Indiana 3. Iowa t, Minnesota I, Missouri T, Nebraska 1, NewJersey 3. New York 1, North Carolina I, Ohio 4 or 5, Pennsylvania I, and Wisconsin 1; a total of 14 or 35. according to the outcome in the doubtful Ohio district. Chairman James S. Criggs, of the
democratic congn'ssional committee, concedes the election of a republican house, and admits that the majority will be around 40. Democrats find some consolation in the defeat of Representative Babcock In Wisconsin, McCleary In Mlnn'sota nd Wadsworth In New York, all of whom wer- prominent republican members. McCleary was particularly conspicuous as a stand -pat tariff man, and the fact will be loudly proclaimed as the occasion of his downfall. A long train of visitors went to the white house to congratulate the president upon the republican inccüi in New York and the congressional election. The republicans assert that the result is a vote of confidence In tbe administration and the president. Chanler Apparently Elected.
